We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Abolish the existing council tax system, and replace it with a local income tax system. More details

Submitted by Giles Hamlin – Deadline to sign up by: 20 May 2007 – Signatures: 144

More details from petition creator

The existing council tax system is not the fairest way for paying for local services - low income families and the elderly are particularly disadvantaged. A local income tax system would be a much fairer way, as with the current system, the more money you earn, the better value local services apparently have, based on a wage/expense ratio.
